Directions
Baked Brie and Red Pepper Jelly Wrapped in Phyllo Pastry, This is a nice twist to the traditional baked brie in puff pastry I find that the phyllo lends to a more elegant presentation Phyllo is not that tricky to work with – just keep the sheets that you aren’t working with covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel We traditionally use a 300 gram wheel of Triple Cream Brie, which converts to about 66 of a pound Because of the size of the phyllo sheets (about 12 x 18 ), you could likely use up to a pound of brie , This is one of the best appetizers of all time I made for New Years and the crowd devoured it!, GREAT – I did sub the Phyllo for ready made tartlets – (had them on hand ) Used green Jalapeno jelly with the Danish Brie – We really enjoyed them with our Sunday Martinis
